• W934350085 abstract "The Impact of Canine Companion Service Animal (CSA) Use on Social Behaviors Between Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders Who Use CSA and Those Who Do Not by Melanie D. Hoffman MS, Walden Univerity, 2009 BS, Lock Haven University, 1996 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Clinical Psychology Walden University May 2012 Abstract According to theory of the mind, individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are unable to interpret the social cues of others, which results in anxiety and social behavior deficits . Individuals with ASD are currently using canine Companion Service Animals (CSAs) in order to practice developing attachment bonds ; however, no known quantitative studies have demonstrated the efficacy of CSA in improving social behaviors in ASD populations. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the extent to which exposure to CSA impacts social skills and social interaction in children and adolescents with ASD as measured by the parent self-reports on the Social Skills Improvement System (SSIS) and the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), respectively. MANOVA results of a matched-paticipant, equivalent, posttest-only design (n = 122) showed that CSA users had fewer deficits in social skills and social interaction. There were no differences in age, IQ, or comorbidity CSA scores for social interaction or social skills based on MANOVA analysis. Results suggest that attachment bonds between the CSA user and an associated CSA provide an opportunity to engage in social interactions despite social skill deficits. This study contributes to social change by increasing awareness of the impact of CSA on the daily social functioning of children and adolescents with ASD.According to theory of the mind, individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are unable to interpret the social cues of others, which results in anxiety and social behavior deficits .

UMI Number: 3509470 Dedication This study is dedicated to Thomas and Lady, whose friendship and love for each other can be described as nothing short of magic. This study is also dedicated to my parents who recognized the importance of pets in a child’s life. And for Jeremy, who never doubted I could accomplish this research study. I love you all! Acknowledgments I would like to thank my husband, Jeremy, whose enduring patience has been a gift, and for my son, Thomas, who thought that this study was a great idea for giving animals and individuals with autism a way to improve their lives. I would also like to thank all of the canine training facilities, ABA centers, and school districts that helped to recruit my sample, forming partnerships with the community is the best way to educate the public on this new service and intervention. I would like to thank Dr. Cox who made the dissertation process painless and almost fun. Dr. Cox challenged my abilities and my thought processes so that the best possible final product could be achieved. Dr. Lifrak, thank-you for taking the chance on a topic that you had reservations about. We learned about the use of CAT with CSAs together, and your help with the statistical analysis helped achieve my educational goals." @default.
